Some observations from the person who reported this offer:

"I received this email supposedly from a potential employer, but I'm smart enough to know better.  Whilst they did use my name in the salutation, no mention of where my resume was seen is mentioned.  Also I do not use this particualr email address for my job search.  I did use it on Careerbuilder and Monster some time ago but my info was marked private.  I hope this helps you find out more about this mystery organization that does not exist when searched on Google."

The gap between the company name and the "Inc." suggest a scammer who filled in this message like it was a template. Since the job promises 8% per transaction, we can confirm it's a money transfer/mule scam, designed to rob you twice--once when you withdraw the funds and wire transfer them before they clear, then again when the bank reverses the transaction.

In fact, for many unemployed individuals, this IS a job they see being offered every day. Problem is, IT'S NOT A JOB!

We especially like their excuse at the end for why they use a Gmail. Apparently all you job seekers are a bunch of spammers. Or these guys are full of carp. You know what WE think, right?

Subject: [removed], Great Work Proposition for you

 

Dear [removed],

My name is Rosalyn Cooper and I represent Margell Group  Inc. We took a glance into your resume and decided that your skills meet our basic requirements for a Payment Processing Agent position.

This is not a job that you see being offered every day, but is available and your name came up as a qualified candidate.

Our company helps people to secure their deals online by processing their payment through our reliable Agents and Managers. This process requires attention to the details and a team work, that's why you would be trained during 30 days of the trial period.

A personal supervisor guides your training. At the end of the training the personal supervisor makes the final decision to extend a permanent offer or not. Your training is critical to your success!

There is no start-up or any other fees. The company covers all the fees related to the hiring process.

Your salary during the trial period is $2,300 per month plus 8% commission from each transaction. Total income, with the current volume of clients, will be about $4,500 per month. After the trial period base salary will be $3,000 per month plus 8% commission.

Please Note: The Gmail address is being used to avoid from getting spam on our main e-mail address.

If your resume is not up to date, please include your phone number, name and address in your reply.

Yours faithfully,

Rosalyn Cooper
Margell Group  Inc.
